This isn’t just a gun show, or an RV show, but a true sportsman’s show.

While Ill be there for some time Friday evening, I’ll be working on Saturday and Sunday after 1PM. If you decide to attend during these periods, stop by the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) booth and say hello and consider buying a raffle ticket for a chance to win a rifle – all RMEF raffle ticket proceeds stay in Colorado to support habitat for elk and other wildlife.

Well, this event isn't half of what it was advertised to be.

The "guns and ammunition" is more like what you'd see at a flea market; and only a few tables of that.

"Gunsmoke" is there. After everything I've heard about them on this site, I told everyone I could to avoid Gunsmokes display.

I'd still be happy to see you if you come out.

Waste of time and sixteen bucks. Not to mention the gas to drive down to the springs.
Took the wife to the olive garden for lunch just so the afternoon wouldn't be a total bust.

Yeah Thomas, i knew it would be a waste of a weekend, that's why you didn't see me at the PPFC booth.

I made the mistake of asking Caveman if you'd be coming in. 45 minutes later I was finally able to rip myself from his vocal grasp. Don't get me wrong, he's a nice guy and all, but just sooooooo long winded.

Yeah he never shuts up. I've been trying to get him to stay home for a change and just let me run the damn thing.
